WTO Scrutinizes Agricultural Trade Amid Global Policy Debates
The World Trade Organization (WTO) is intensifying its scrutiny of agricultural trade policies among its member countries. During a recent meeting, the WTO's Committee on Agriculture discussed issues such as food security, technology transfer, and compliance with trade commitments. The WTO reported that global exports of agricultural products reached $1,465 billion last year, slightly down from previous years. The meeting highlighted concerns over tariffs and non-tariff measures that hinder trade, with specific attention to policies from the European Union, Japan, New Zealand, Switzerland, and the United States.
